It was in 1938 that Ferdinand Porsche and his team finalized the design of the Beetle. The requirement was for a 'people's car' that was cheap, simple, and could be mass-produced for Germany's new road network. The production of beetles took off during the late '40s, and a decade later, one million Beetles had been sold. Since then, the VW Beetle has become an icon in automotive history due to its unique appearance. This remarkable 1960 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible is located in California and has the distinction of being featured on VW Trends Magazine's cover in 2001.
This Beetle has undergone a full frame-off restoration and is now in a distinctive Yukon Yellow. The car sports its classic chrome front bumper, with silver trimming around the headlights, hood, alongside the body continuing to the rear with a matching bumper and twin exhaust. The look is completed with a set of chrome VW hubcaps framed in whitewall tires, incase the Beetle wasn't already retro enough. The interior complements the entire look perfectly. The Yukon Yellow paint stretching across the dashboard is complemented beautifully with white accents on its fully functional radio, immaculate steering wheel, and gear knob. The front and rear seats come in green and white leather trim, with the same application to the door panels and beige seatbelts to match the soft-top convertible roof.
This version comes with a fully rebuilt original 1.2l air-cooled boxer engine with a power output of 36 bhp accessible via a 4-speed manual transmission. Some extras include a new clutch, brand new brakes as well as a new shifter.
It’s hard to find someone who doesn’t like the Volkswagen Beetle – even if they may not outwardly say, or show it. Volkswagen’s lovable little bug-shaped car has been produced in more or less the same form from 1938 to 2003. Envisioned to revolutionize mobility for the German public, the Beetle did that for countless other countries too. Its friendly purr is its aural handshake; the result of its simple and reliable air-cooled flat-four engine. Over 21 million Beetles were made, yet it’s harder than you’d expect to find one up for sale. That’s because most Beetle owners tend to hang on to the car, for obvious reasons. So if you’ve been after your very own Bug, here’s a 1972 Volkswagen Beetle with just 89,726 miles on it. Moreover, the car underwent restoration in 2020, which explains why it looks so fresh.
